Item 8.01			Other Events

On January 23, 2026, Amneal Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) determined that it will make effective its nationwide agreement to settle a substantial majority of the opioids-related claims brought against the Company by various states and subdivisions (the “Nationwide Opioids Settlement Agreement”), having previously secured sufficient participation by those states and subdivisions, including all eligible state and territorial attorneys general and all subdivisions that previously sued the Company. The Nationwide Opioids Settlement Agreement will become effective on January 29, 2026. Under the terms of the Nationwide Opioids Settlement Agreement, the Company will pay the participating states and subdivisions $88.5 million and provide up to $177.4 million (valued at $125/twin pack) in naloxone nasal spray to help treat opioid overdoses. In lieu of receiving product, the settling parties can opt to receive 25% of the naloxone nasal spray's value (up to $44.4 million) in cash during the last four years of the ten year payment term, which could increase the total amount of cash the Company would agree to pay up to $132.9 million.
